Labour Party Young Socialists

The Labour Party Young Socialists (LPYS) was the youth section of the Labour Party in Britain from 1965 until 1993. In the 1980s, it had around 600 branches, 2,000 delegates at its national conferences and published a monthly newspaper, Socialist Youth. From the early 1970s, it was led by members of Militant.

Origins

The Labour Party has had several youth sections. In the 1930s, the Labour League of Youth had 30,000 members. The League took a highly critical stance towards the leadership of the Party and was closed down in 1954.
